Chapter 358 Ancient Calendar New Year

Romell obediently took down the flag, and Reggie was in the mood to sit down and talk with him.

"Lord Victor, we are here to discuss business with you."

This sentence sounded pleasant to the ear, and since we were here to discuss business, Reggie also had a smile on his face.

"I don't know what products the Prime Minister is interested in. For the sake of Her Majesty the Queen, the price can be easily negotiated."

"We want to purchase food."

I really admire Romell's ability to make people annoying. Just two sentences once again hit Reggie's bottom line.

"Snow City does not sell food to the outside world."

"This is Zhilin City, my lord!" Romell was still testing Reggie's bottom line.

"No food is sold in my territory!" Reggie's expression changed. "If you want to buy food, you can go to the White Tower Country. I can lend you the waterway."

"Although the food in the White Tower Country is good, their food costs money..."

"Doesn't my food cost money?" Reggie finally couldn't bear it anymore. Looking at Romell's face that needed a beating, Reggie really had the urge to beat him to death.

"But the people of Bayer Country can't live any longer," Romell said with tears welling up in his eyes, "What we need most now is food."

What is this? Is it pitiful? Let alone this annoying old man, even if Sophia begged with tears in her eyes, Reggie would not be tempted.

"I'm just a countryless lord who has nothing to do but look after myself. I don't have the ability to provide free assistance to your country."

"It's not free, my lord," Romell came to Reggie's ear with a lewd smile, "If you are willing to provide four million pounds of food to the Bayer Country, Her Majesty the Queen will recognize your status as king.

And I am willing to personally carry the crown for you at your coronation ceremony."

There is another person who is willing to wear the crown for him. It seems that people on this continent care about the meaning of justice.

Reggie also wanted to be the king legitimately, but he would not exchange it for food, which was the basis for the survival of his people.

"Tell your queen that I long for her recognition and respect, but I don't like her way. At least she shouldn't trade my dignity."

"With all due respect, my lord," Romelle took a sip of wine, "there is no impossible business in this world, only an inappropriate price."

"There is some truth in that," Reggie said with a smile, "Then tell your queen that her price is not right."

"It's just four million grains. Is it more important than your crown?"

"There are many countries on this continent, and many people are willing to give me the crown," Reggie said with provocative disdain on his face, "Let Sophia care more about her own crown, her war with Sean

It’s not over yet.”

Reggie stood up to leave, but Romell quickly stepped forward to stop him.

This is the great thing about Romell. He has a way of irritating Reggie, but he will never be irritated by Reggie.

"We can discuss the price further. If you feel that this sincerity is not enough, we can also add some more chips."

Reggie smiled when he heard this, turned around and sat back on the chair: "Tell me, what other chips do you have?"

"We can give you the Golden Light City. Of course, a Golden Light City requires more than four million pounds of grain."

Reggie restrained himself for a long time. Looking at Romell's dirty smile, he really couldn't maintain his graceful manner.

"You are so shameless. Golden Light City does not belong to you at all. It is the territory of the Lion Kingdom. You are just renting it!"

"Sir, you have always been in the center of the whirlpool, but I really didn't expect that your news would be so blocked!" Romell said, "At the beginning of the war, His Majesty Charlemagne had already assigned the Golden City to the Bayer Kingdom.

"This is not nonsense. Her Majesty the Queen holds a document written by Charlemagne in her hand, and it has the seal of the lion that cannot be copied."

The golden lion seal is the highest symbol of power in the Lion Kingdom. There are traces of the lion seal on the book of canonization of the Victor family. There are more than 60 marks on that seal. Even if the top craftsmen are called in, there is no possibility of copying it.

Is Golden Light City really ceded to Sophia by Charlemagne? This matter can be verified by Chris. I believe he is also willing to cede Golden Light City to himself. If Sophia can really come up with such a bargaining chip, the matter of food

You can also consider it.

"If you can give us 10 million pounds of grain now, I will bring the paperwork next month, and I will also bring Her Majesty the Queen's promise that she will attend your coronation ceremony as scheduled!"

This damn old ghost actually wants to make a fool of himself!

The furious Reggie grabbed Romell's collar. Romell was frightened like a puppy waiting to be beaten, which made Reggie reluctantly give up the idea of ​​beating him.

"I will give you half a month to return to Bayer Country immediately to get the documents, and then withdraw all the garrison troops in Golden Light City. Only then will you be able to get the food you want. Do you understand me?

"

Romell nodded vigorously.

"If you understand, take your people back to Bayer Country now. I'm waiting for your good news."

That night, Romell and his entourage left the port of Zhilin City by boat. Reggie immediately sent orders to Shattering Snow City and Hanfeng Fortress, asking them to step up their defense against the north.

Batchelor was not as nervous as Reggie. In the past few days, he had been inquiring about the news about Bayer Country, and he knew Sophia's situation very well.

"The war between her and Sean has become extremely difficult. The hungry civilians are revolting. She does not have the strength to launch a war against you. Maybe in half a month, she will really deliver Golden Light City to you.

inside."

I hope things will go as Batchelor imagined. Reggie is really fed up with the war with Sophia. After staying in Zhilin City for two days, Batchelor made a request: "New Year for the Dongsang people."

It's coming soon, and the people of Tuodao hope to spend the festival with adults."

Reggie hesitated for a moment and said: "I'm still worried that the Bayer Congress will cause trouble. As you know, the passage to the Lost Mountain has been opened. If they send troops from Golden Light City, they can bypass Hanmaple Fortress and directly attack Broken Snow City.

At this time, I'd better not go to sea easily."

"Your worries are reasonable, and you should always be more cautious," Bachelo tried his best to cover up the disappointment on his face and whispered, "But if the people of Tuo Island can see you at the New Year's ceremony, they will definitely

I will be very happy.”

Looking at Batchelor's troubled expression, Reggie felt that there seemed to be some other reason behind it.

"My great bachelor, did something happen to Camel Island?"

"Not yet, but the opportunities for the people to see you are too few."

Batchelor's answer made Reggie worried. Camel Island had been incorporated into Reggie's territory very early, but Reggie didn't put much thought into Camel Island. He spent even more time on Spiked Island than on Spiked Island.

It needs to be longer on Camel Island.

Although Bachelo did not say it explicitly, Reggie could imagine that the residents of Camel Island would not have much recognition for him.

It is a good idea to go to Tuodao Island to celebrate the New Year. Reggie misses the Eastern New Year very much, and the location of Tuodao Island is very special. If Sophia really wants to start a war, Reggie can rush back to Shattering Snow City in one day, and even

Directly launched a counterattack against the Bayer Kingdom at sea.

"Prepare some gifts for me," Reggie said with a smile, "Don't let the people think I'm too stingy."

Bachelo was very excited, and the wrinkles on his face were opened several times with laughter. But before leaving, he mentioned another thing: "If possible, I hope you can take Doranor with you. If

If any accident happens, he can guarantee your safety."

Reggie was startled: "What you mean by accident is..."

"I mean if," Batchelor hesitated for a while, "sometimes, I really can't figure out Lord Saga's thoughts."
